ALT Presents Agatha Christie's "The Mousetrap"

Strangers are stranded in a rural boarding house during a snow storm. Many are not whom they appear to be: the newlyweds who run the house, a young unmarried woman with a curious background, an architect who seems better equipped to be a chef, a retired Army major, a strange man who claims his car has overturned in a drift, and a jurist who makes life miserable for everyone. Into their midst comes a policeman, traveling on skis. Shortly after his arrival, the jurist is killed. To get to the rationale of the murder, the policeman probes into the background of everyone present, rattling a lot of skeletons along the way. Another famous Agatha Christie switch finish, another superb intrigue for the foremost mystery writer of her time, and the longest running play in history.
